Trump signs memo ordering end to 'catch and release' practices
By Jesse Byrnes - 04/06/18 07:32 PM EDT
President Trump signed a memorandum on Friday ordering agencies to "expeditiously end" the practice critics call "catch and release" that allows immigrants caught in the U.S. without proper documents to be released while their immigration cases play out in courts.
The memo signed by Trump orders the Department of Homeland Security, in coordination with other agencies, to submit a report to the president within 45 days "detailing all measures that their respective departments have pursued or are pursuing to expeditiously end 'catch and release' practices."
The report instructs departments to share information on any contracts to construct or operate detention facilities along the border as well as steps taken to assign asylum officers at detention facilities, among other measures.
As part of the order, Trump is requesting "a detailed list of all existing facilities, including military facilities, that could be used, modified, or repurposed to detain aliens for violations of immigration law at or near the borders of the United States."
Trump has also directed Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen to identify any other resources or steps "that may be needed to expeditiously end 'catch and release' practices."

There are some great tents our military used for housing our soldiers in Iraq. We could erect tent cities along the border and house them until their court date.
If its good enough for our military, it should surely be good enough for illegals. In some cases it would be luxurious
PERFECT !!!!

Take it to the bank
Interesting that YOU asked for an MSM source to “prove it”
Hmmmmmm
Muy Interesante...
Que No?
No, I was NOT asking for a MSM sourced. If you read the comments, I noted I had already read about a dozen and was looking for the ORIGINAL source document because the MSM sources were reporting this with conflicting versions. Please reread my several comments!!!
Yep. I think you got a handle on all of it.
The Communist Left is now completely predictable.
Source document was signed today and described by Sarah Sanders at a WH press briefing. It is not yet on the whitehouse.gov web site, but I believe the press briefing video from today is available.
Golly, Rosie O’Donuts must be painting like crazy to relieve the anxiety.
ROTFLOL
how about catch and effing deport??
lol :)
A little stronger version would be to declare Martial Law along the border then the courts could have a conniption while the military enforced the border laws.
